# Zapier

> The best-known no-code automation platform — connects SaaS apps with trigger-action 'Zaps' without servers to run, priced per task.

Zapier made 'when X happens in app A, do Y in app B' a product anyone can wire: new row in the sheet → slack message; new lead → CRM entry. For linear, low-volume glue it is often the fastest correct answer, and the ecosystem of connectors is its moat.

The economics turn at volume and complexity: tasks are metered, branching logic gets awkward, and your data flows through a third party. That is the usual reason teams graduate to self-hosted tools like n8n or bespoke integrations — not ideology, arithmetic.
